Live
Sand is essential in every Saltwater Aquarium

THE STRONGEST BIOLOGICAL
Live Sand is used to add both a strong
biological and beauty to any saltwater aquarium. Full of beneficial
bacteria that break down nitrogen-based waste that is produced
by marine life. This waste if not elliminated is what would cause
severe harmful chemistry spikes in the aquarium water. Live Sand
will benefit not only reef aquariums, but also fish-only tanks
that incorporate external filtration.
BENEFICIAL SAND DWELLERS
There are many beneficial types of worms and crustaceans found
in the live sand. These dwellers are used by many fish as a natural
food source. The grain size of ranges from fine (sugar size)
to a medium grade.
RECOMMENDED AMOUNT
The recommended amount is 1 to 1-1/2 pounds per gallon, for a
sand layer of up to 2 inches.
ADDITIONAL CRITTERS TO
ADD
We recommend incorporating sand-sifting invertebrates such as
sand stars, horse shoe crabs or sea cucumbers and serpant stars
and/or brittle stars along with your fish to aquariums that contain
live sand. These animals will maintain the proper oxygen content
in the top layer of the sand, and stir up detritus so that it
can be removed from the aquarium by the mechanical filter.
WHEN DO I ADD MY LIVE SAND?
Should be added right from the begining, as it is beneficial
in the entire cycling process of the new aquarium. |

The oceans live
sand, collected off of the Gulf of Mexico. This is real live sand. When other websites
offer 6 different varieties of sand, you can be sure it's just
packaged sand, that hasn't seen the ocean in a long long time.
Bagged live sand with special additives, sold as "live sand"
to create your biologic bacteria is not what your fish or corals
want. Get what the ocean offers you. The real thing, ocean live
sand, will instantly start to stabilize your tanks PH and biological
balance. Artificially adding bacteria (or cultured bacteria)
through chemical additives does not provide the same success
rate, no matter what the advertisements say. A mixed texture,
it is a tremendous filtration device, looks good, and we highly
recommend it's use for anyone interested in building a strong
biological environment for their aquarium. |

Looking for something
different. Some
people think black sand for saltwater aquariums can damage your
equipment and make your fish sick. That completely nonsense.
Although most people imagine pure white sand tropical beaches
as their ideal holidays destination, Black sand for saltwater
aquariums is very common in many beaches around the world
and you dont think the entire ocean floor is covered in
white sand, do you? Volcanic originated sand tends to be black,
and is quite safe to be used in any aquarium (but preferably
for saltwater aquariums.) If you think Black sand for saltwater
aquariums would enhance your aquariums look and style, then dont
hesitate for a second. The only catch is: if you have already
your fish in there, you should take all precautions just
as you would if you were to use any other kind of sand. The environment
inside a fish tank is in a constant and very delicate balance,
whenever you remove or add something new into the mix, you should
be extra careful. With pure black volcanic sand resting in your
aquarium, you can rest assured it will bring out all colors even
more. Fish that would look plain and dull
with white sand can now look a lot brighter and colorful. Thats
one of the main reasons many people prefer "Black sand for
saltwater aquariums" over light ones. For large aquariums
you can even use it both, on different areas. Its up to
you to decide how you can put it to good use. |
